Hyderabad batsmen disappointed

 

Chasing the target of 201 runs, Hyderabad batsmen performed disappointingly. For them, Heinrich Klaasen played the highest innings of 33 runs. Apart from him, Kamindu Mendis scored 27, Nitish Kumar Reddy scored 19 and Pat Cummins scored 14 runs. At the same time, six batsmen could not even touch the double-digit figure.

Kolkata's innings

 

Earlier, thanks to the half-century partnership of Ajinkya Rahane and Angkrish Raghuvanshi and a strong innings of 60 runs by Venkatesh Iyer, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) set a target of 201 runs in front of Sunrisers Hyderabad. For Hyderabad, Mohammed Shami, Pat Cummins, Zeeshan Ansari, Harshal Patel, and Kamindu Mendis took one wicket each.

 

After losing the toss and coming to bat first, Kolkata started with a setback. Both the openers of the team returned to the pavilion in the powerplay. Pat Cummins got Quinton de Kock (1) caught by Zeeshan Ansari. After this, Mohammed Shami made Sunil Narine (7) his victim. After this, captain Ajinkya Rahane took over the front. He shared an 81-run partnership with Angkrish Raghuvanshi for the third wicket.

 

Rahane was dismissed after scoring 38 runs in 27 balls while Raghuvanshi completed his second half-century in 32 balls. During this, he hit five fours and two sixes. After this, Venkatesh Iyer proved to be a troubleshooter for Kolkata. He scored a half-century in just 25 balls and took the team's score close to 200. He looked in great form. The vice-captain batted at a strike rate of 206.89 and was dismissed after playing an innings of 60 runs. He was caught by Aniket Verma on the third ball of the last over by Harshal Patel.
